The InttfSSI of people In public af fairs Is considerably heightened when they learn that the .revenues of the government are wisely and Judlcl ously managed. A statement of eco mimical expenditure which Is sus ceptible of proof will always attract attention and please the thoughtful reader. Aiming the varied Industrial enter prises of the Post Office Department in Washington Is an establishment de voted entirely to the manufacture of mail locks and the hag attachments used in mall transportation. When this administration came Intn power, the department sorely needed an Im proved typt of mall lock. The shop was Immediately reorganized, placed on a business basis, and Its activities enlarged so as to meet this Impera tive demand. Within a very short time a new and greatly improved lock had lieen devised and Its production begun. The luck In use weighed ounces: the new one weighs 2 4-.ri ounces. As 4 30, nun of this new product have been put Into service, the difference In weight (the government paying as much fur the weight at equipment as it does fur the mail itselfi can be easily calculated. The locks replaced by this new and better style cost 21 cents each to make: those now being manufactured cost S Vi cents, direct and indirect charges considered, the saving thus shown on original cost of production to date amounting to 153,. 110, of the old style. 3000 were annually returned for repair at a cost "f abotll f cents each. Of the new style, out of the great number sent Into the service, but !06 have been returned, and as these new style locks: The bojc9 the pacK&ge or the cigarette A Box does not make a ciga rette and besides Boxes are extravagant The Fatima Package is original with Fatima It will appeal to you as being inexpensive neat and in good taste Fatima u made for men tvho Value a cigarette for the tobacco it contain If packed in an expensive Box or fancy package, Fatima positively could not be sold at the price In Fatima the value is where it belongs in the cigarette can be repaired at a cost of 3 cents cuch. the annual saving on this item will amount to over J 2, 100. The department has In this admin istration sftoou raxed its employees to give their best service to the govern ment and many Instances have recent ly come to notice wherein the depart ment has greatly profited by this wise public pollcv. In the lock shoo a re cent achievement In this direction Is an improved cord fastener, the work ot" three of its employees, for use on bans; also one deigned fur lucking lot He quantities of pan el post mat ter, which has heretofore been with out this protection. It can be made at a very low price, requiring less ma terial and a fewer number of oper ations. The Significant part of this lies In the great number required in the service, between three and four millions, the output being .100,000 an nually. As the cost has been reduced by the new method from 4 K to 2 cents each. It will be seen what a splendid showing this makes for ad ministrative economy. Another valuable Improvement has been the perfected locking cord fast rer designed for use on tie sacks, something which the department for years has needed and vainly endeav ored to accomplish. This device will he of great value to the postal service at large by increasing the capacity nnd efficiency of mail bags to a degree difficult to estimate. The modern system of business methods and the I t oper encouragement of employees to take an active and earnest interest in their work both of which desirable features this administration of the de partment has favored and put Into Practice, Is responsible for the many improvements made and the advan tages gained. Active experiments are constantly being made for the betterment of the Service. For many years a tremen dous expense has been the labeling of the immense quantity of mail bags in use. The form of label used In the Past and still used by clerks all over the country Is the doubling and re folding of what Is known as a "facing I slip." The preparation of these labels by the thousands has been and is as expensive proposition, yet there appears to have been no effort on the part of previous administrations to progress from the old method. I'n der present direction a perforated la bel in sheets and runs has been desi gned which is practically ready for use when furnished to I Every postal clerk In the thousands of post office i - find this new method of tage and It will result In r.omy In the service. There have also been notable Improvements m substitution of steel whe formerly used, at a very employees, 'ountry and i iployes will t reat ad van -i large eco- snme other le. viz.. the brass was onsiderahle lessening of expense; a device for fastening foreign mail pouches, doing away with the old fashioned method of strlna and seal: a scheme for sav ! ing twine by means of a simple holder which permits free and easy use with out waste, and a llexiule stamp de sign, for which the contract price was :!4 cents but which will now be made at a cost of but & cents. A mochanl- j ' cal pickup or facing table for use in i facing and stacking letters in first-1 class post offices has also been de-1 veloped and will soon be perfected.. This dev ice is considered superior to i those now in use and costs less than j one-third as much to manufacture. j Those at present in use cost approxi-1 mately 11,500. It will thus be seen that the actt-1 , vitles of the post office department j have been centered along lines which Will not only produce large economies! to the people of the country, but will j ( also prove a great convenience to J I those in the service. During the past; three years two objects have been I kept constantly In view, viz. saving public money wherever possible and serving the people to the fullest ex I tent There was room for great im-1 ; pro Yemeni and there has been much I ; accomplished. It Is but common jus- j tice to award due credit in these ad-. , mlnlstrative reforms to the Fourth! Assistant Fostmaster General. In whose bureau these measures of eco-1 i r.omv were developed and who has so .faithfully devoted his time to that : purpose. A FEW REAL BARGAINS NOW.
